Yes, I wonder if the real compromise that Ipswich have made is the sell on clause and Sunderland are gambling on decent wedge again next summer. Assuming we buy these two strikers we are linked to we still have cause for real optimism.

Social media is an abomination when stuff like this happens mind.
The same people kicking off with the club are the same ones who said they expected Clarke to leave.
Players come and go. Let’s get behind the lads tomorrow and give Burnley the same treatment we gave Sheff Wed.

Why did no other clubs offer £16m if he's such a bargain at £15m.
Any idea?
Which he did btw, Romano confirmed it himself
18 months without a competent striker is well run? Selling the best player in the championship for £15m is well run.
we needed to show some ambition this window hopefully we still will but I’m not suede how anyone can defend selling Clarke for such a low price when you see other transfer fees.
Its not being run badly tho is it
We have sold a very good player, for one of the highest transfer fees weve ever received
I think its the highest profit weve ever made on a player that weve signed (im sure if im wrong someone will be quick to correct me)
Clarke is 1 very good player but if we use the money to sign 3/4 players who are just the level below him itll improve the squad
Some people really dont know how football.works
I work for a team that sold their 2 best players last season, we used the money to improve our squad, some of it to sign our exciting young players to better deals n then we went n improve from the season before
Clarke is replaceable n i think getting 20 million plus having a sell on clause is good business

Bought a player for a £1 million, £2 million? Sold him for at least £15 million. I wish I ran my accounts this badly.
You use the phrase 'when it is being badly run' as fact. I completely disagree with that statement for a start.
Except it was 20m with basically guaranteed addons. Mate to run a club sustainably and with the model we have, these sales will happen. You didn’t see Brentford fans bitching and crying when they sold Watkins and Benrahma and they used the money to improve the squad and went up
My 16yo is gutted, his favourite leaving. I said I was gutted when my favourite player left (Johnston) it's just football life!! I wish him all the very best, lovely lad and a great pro.
Totally agree, it's telling that established premier league clubs aren't banging the door down to get him.
I’d take that over not having a club to support or watching Danny ****ing graham waddle about the pitch
we’ve tied down assets to longer deals, signed the experienced midfielder we were crying out for and finally look to be addressing the striker issue, I’d say that’s positive change, would be a boring world if we all agreed on everything though so not claiming my opinions is fact or better than yours
He has 2 years left on his contract we don’t need to sell at £15m particularly when a good proportion goes to spurs.
we need the owners to buy a striker not sacrifice a gem to purchase one.
People also forget he has already been to the PL for a big fee and didn’t step up so ended up here. That’ll automatically decrease his price compared to the likes of others who haven’t played there yet
